It's been a while, but I bought this car from Steve a few years ago and have had it in the corner waiting for some time to get on with it. This was always going to be my car to keep and so it always got put off. I have to thank Steve for doing a great job. The car was about 80% done, he really did s...

The same Gaffer of JCB that owns 2 x original 250GTO's?

500K would be a drop in the well for him when his 2 ferraris are worth upwards of $50m!!

The more expensive boards are lighter, more responsive, change direction quicker, have more pop, have a better base etc.. Really depends on your level, a good board will help you improve quicker too. Burton are good but overpriced, there is loads of choice out there. I tried a load of boards, found ...

So no one followed this up? 1968 resto on Ebay. I would have thought the engine number would have raised some discussion. 6318011 911/20 is a 2.3 ST engine isn't it? Or have the shrewdies tried to keep this to themselves? Numbers look a big dodge but then again the picture is hazy. If the number is ...

GTB not the GT4 I hope.. GTS leaks.

Air Con always faulty, very temperamental. Not a great driving position, but I still love the look of them..

288 GTO is the one only 273 made (if you have a spare 250k) otherwise the FB model is the best investment.

White 2.7RS looker coming off the Eurotunnel 14th Feb 7pm..

Ducktail, cibies, twin exhausts. Certainly was more than 210bhp.. On a 1974 M plate, backdated 74 Carrara? Looked like early Michelins? Problem was it took me a good 10 mins to catch on you on the M20, and lets say I may have been going over the speed limit, you seemed pretty fearless to me!.. Must ...
